Subject: RDCOMServer for R 2.0.1 + Windows ?

This is about an Omegahat package.
Especially for packages not on CRAN, please ask the maintainer in the
first instance. There were Omegahat mailing lists: I do not know if they
are currently operational but this does indicate that R-help is not the
appropriate place to ask.
Your questions are about Windows, not R, and the posting guide would point
you to R-devel not R-help if either.
